NANCY

Who are you? Do I know you?Have you let me in to see?It's awesome and a wonder What you have come to be
The barriers were always greatWith time and different viewsRemember when I used to ask, "Please may I wear your shoes"?
Which ones was I referring to?The ones upon your feet? Or was it the steps you took in them?It was such a lovely beat.
Of care and planning With warmth and prideWith dignity and strength Always standing at your side
And so when someone recognizesA part of you in me I accept the compliment gratefully And enjoy that they could see

And there you have my sister. A neat lady as you can see. She lives in Texas and is a bit too far away to suit this New Yorker. If you would like to visit her home town of Austin, click here.
